East West Theatre is dedicated to sharing high-standard English-language drama with the Shanghai arts and culture community. We are committed to providing an intimate, engaging, and thought-provoking theatrical experience with every single production.

The Scream will be presented first in the Chinese-language ‘Shanghai’ adaptation, then in its original English-language, ‘New York’ version. (Not English then Chinese as the Shanghai Pride site states.) How will two directors, and two casts, from different cultures interpret the same play? How much of the story can we share, and how much will be lost in translation?
